[QUOTE="bluepower, post: 6632334, member: 1540"] It strikes me there is a problem here that needs adressing here by the auctioneers who have no doubt deducted their commission from the lamb. I had an issue last year when I sent a pen of killing ewes to the live market on one of the hottest days of the year. The day after the auction I was called by the auctioneers who said that one of my ewes had died in the pen during the night. They deducted the value of the ewe from my cheque but still charged commision for selling it! I thought that the sheep should not have been kept in market the night after the auction without food or acess to water. Makes farm assurance a total farce in my eyes? Anyway I just put up and shut up but feel I was well and truely done over. Double standards or what. Whose responsbility at the fall of the hammer? [/QUOTE]
